Isla and Max Tullos turned a brick building that used to house a busy printing press into a comfortable home. For more than a century, the Keith Printing Press kept this building abuzz printing the daily Gazette from early in the morning to late at night. The company name remains in stone on the building's exterior.

Billy Keith, whose family owned and operated the press, is in awe of the building’s transformation from a busy publishing house to a unique home with a livable floor plan. Despite having structural problems, the Tullos saw the historic building's potential when they bought it in 1991. After a yearlong restoration, the 1830 building is now a quiet home on the town square in Raymond, Miss.
